Tripoli - Human Rights Watch says a picked-up wave of
political assassinations in Libya has killed 51 people as the country lacks any
effective law enforcement.

In a statement released on Thursday, the group says
authorities have yet to arrest any suspects in the killings. Victims have
included political activists, judges and members of security agencies.

Human Rights Watch says the killings have centered around
the eastern cities of Benghazi and Darna. The group says there have been no
investigations carried out about the killings and no witnesses interviewed by
authorities. No groups have claimed responsibility for the killings.

Joe Stroke of Human Rights Watch says the lack of
investigations show "the government's failure to build a functioning
justice system." Libya has struggled to rebuild its security agencies
since its 2011 civil war.
